Because Hirscher is winning super g/downhill races? Also Hirscher will be gone soon while Shiffrin will dominate for many more years.

Shiffrin won 6 out of 7 slaloms, Hirscher won 4 out of 7. Shiffrin/Vlhova went 1-2 in 6 out of 7 races, theres in no way anyone can not call women's slalom the most boring discipline of all (apart from men's/women's alpine combined).

 

Men's SL/GS is more boring because Kristoffersen has dropped off the boil badly when it seemed 2-3 years ago he can challenge Hirscher. He simply can't these days. If Hirscher avoids injury he's got 5-6 years left and him doing only tech events actually helps his longevity. He only got beat on merit once in slalom this season, the other two he simply eased off too much in the 1st run thinking he can win at 80%.

More specifically, the way the combined is set up currently is a joke. The whole thing in itself is not bad at all if they manage to make it sort of balanced.

Austria without a single medal on the women's side and it may very well stay that way until the end. :yikes:

What a disaster performance for them.

The performances weren't actually that bad, after all they got two 4th places. It's just that the speed specialists all weren't able to convert the great shape they have had all season into medals. In the gs we were never gonna win a medal with Brunner injured and in the Slalom we will see. The slope really doesn't suit Schild, Gallhuber is injured so really that leaves us with Liensberger as the only realiatic medal contender and tbf that's not a very promising prospect

No way he is gonna continue that long though. He was already close to quitting last year and if I had to bet I'd actually put my money on him retiring after this season

What I'd really like was him giving it a proper go at super-gs but that's not gonna happen unfortunately.

He doesn't need SG to win the overall anymore. He will stay around if only to beat Stenmark's record. He's what, 18 wins behind? Though Shiffrin will probably eclipse them both.

Men's skiing is vastly superior. Quality wise, competition wise, entertainment wise.

Speed events, yes but not the technical ones.

I'm actually having only slalom in mind.

 

You're free to disagree of course, but in my mind it's easy *win* for the men. I guess thanks to some cool new kids from Croatia as well. But not only because of that. There are just way more interesting athletes participating in the men's side, skiing looks better to me, and it's also always a pleasure seeing Hirscher doing one of his mad runs that usually wins him the races.

      Update after Matchdays 8 and 9.   Group A:  is almost a lock with 21p, and 7 games 7 wins. Almost impossible for them to not qualify. The battle is in the second place between  (16p) and  (13p).  with 8p is almost out.  and  eliminated.   Group B:  won both of the 2 games so is almost secured with 19p.  is second with 14p, with  (1 more game played) and  with 11p.  is eliminated and  practically too (6p)   Group C:  went 2 out of 2 so they are still first with 16p and one game less than the rest. The battle for second place will be between  14p,  11p and  9p.  eliminated and  (with one game less and 4p) probably too.   Group D: Only 3 for 2 places.  first with 19p has the advantage, but coming close is  with 16p. They played each other in the Matchday 11 of 12. Coming in third behind is  with 11p. ,  and  eliminated.   Group E: Both  and  won both matches so its still the same, Poland first with 24p and Italy second with 21p, which is the best runner-up and also qualifying directly, so is very likely that both teams end up qualifying no matter who finish first and second. , ,  and  eliminated.   Group F: A tie between  18p and  18p. Germany has the goal advantage (+21 to +20), and has to play the three weaker teams, so its more likely to qualify. Coming behind are  with 10p and  with 9p, which are practically eliminated with  and   Group G:  takes the advantage with 12p and one game less.  and  both have 7p, and coming behind are  5p (but one game less) and  with 5p.   Group H:  with the win against  moved to first place with 13p (and one game less), and Turkey stays in second with 11p.  is coming in third with 8p, while  is eliminated and  have 3p and one game less.   Group I: A triple tie between ,  and  with 10p.
